falzthebadguy: And it's such a shame too. I've been replacing a lot of stuff. All the ball joints and steering stuff are all new. |

Changed mine as well, the cabin air filter as well as engine air filter. The air condition difference was clear almost immediately. It has over 7 intensity settings i rarelt ever get to 3, always on 2. For the engine i noticed it used more fuel, thought a clean air filter was meant to increase mileage per gallon. Gurus what could cause this 2 Likes |

sultaan: I picked it up locally a couple of months ago but it came through Lagos many years ago. |

I charge my air filters with every service performed. A country like Nigeria that is very very dusty, an air filter charge is advised every 3 months. Do not also forget to replace the cabin filters also..... 1 Like |

vani86: Are you experiencing excessive fuel consumption, pre or post filter replacement? |
Re: So I Decided To Change My Air Filter by vani86: 7:46am On Feb 02, 2017 |
Lexusgs430: Post filter replacement. Wont say excessive though |
Re: So I Decided To Change My Air Filter by Lexusgs430: 9:49am On Feb 02, 2017 |
vani86: Possibly your vehicle is responding better and your lead foot is simply over-enjoying the throttle response........ |

Lexusgs430: It's almost a waste of money replacing your air filter every 3 months. Do you drive in the desert? Except perhaps, you implied cleaning... I clean mine at every service interval and replace when it's due. 1 Like |
